The pair went public with their romance last August

One Direction star Liam Payne has reportedly popped the question to his girlfriend of two years Maya Henry. According to The Daily Mail, the 'Strip That Down' singer splashed £3 million from his £60 million net worth on a dazzling ring!

The 26-year-old, who shares three-year-old son Bear Grey Payne with former X Factor judge Cheryl, first went public with Maya in August 2019 after the pair kept their romance a secret.

Stepping out in London last night (27th August) for a romantic meal, 20-year-old model Maya showed off the humongous ring, which sat on her engagement finger, with the diamond glistening as the paparazzi took their shots.

The pair are yet to confirm the engagement officially, but it's a stark contrast to previous reports about their relationship status. Back in February, it was reported the pair had split.

However, sources told MailOnline that they were "definitely still a couple and are very happy together."

They added, "Both have been taking time off social media lately enjoying each other's company away from the spotlight."

Liam has previously opened up about his relationship with Maya, revealing the model, who he first met when she was 15 at a 1D meet and greet, "completely had his back."

Speaking to MTV News, he said, "Honestly with love, I think you don't really understand it until it gives you that sting, it took a long time for me. For the longest time, living such an exposed life made dating really hard.

"I've found someone who's genuinely my best friend, she's just so relaxed about everything and someone who's completely got your back with everything is just the wildest thing."
